Freshly out is our first hardcover-book (84 pages printed in deepest black and white!). At the invitation of Poste Aérienne, 23 illustrators, graphic designers and book artists created astonishing new designs of their favourite vinyl single covers.

“45 - A Single Cover Album” not only reveals a cross-section of the currently booming young illustrator scene, it’s also a design homage to the 7“ record.

From early fifties recordings of Nina Simone, over the psychedelic years with The Beatles and Captain Beefheart to some seventies stuff like David Bowie and Black Sabbath, to New Wave with Joy Division and Gary Numan until current independent acts like Bonnie „Prince“ Billy or Weilheim‘s The Notwist (to mention but a few).

the Australian magazine »Desktop:« put the piece I made for the »7 Reasons…«-fanfold on the cover of its october-issue and an interview inside. You can read an excerpt online here, I’ll post some scans when I got the printed samples. Big whopping thank-you to Jo Spurling for this oppurtunity!

A couple of weeks ago, a band asked me to make an illustration for their next CD. »Draw us zombie-style!«, they said. And who am I to hesitate a second to exactly do that with such a beautiful concept. Too bad I missed the last zombie-walk in Cologne.
